There are countless food blogs, cookbooks, magazines, cooking tv shows, pinterest, etc., and that makes it hard to make something totally unique. That’s why I love The Domestic Rebel. You think you’ve seen every possible version of a cupcake and then she makes something like this Cupcake in a Cupcake. I love her creativity and she always has a funny story to tell!
These little treats I have for you today have been inspired by Hayley’s Circus Animal Cookie Truffles. They sounded so and yummy, I just had to make them! I changed the recipe a bit and added bubble gum flavor. I wanted to surprise her with this post as my little “Ode to my new bloggy friend” and for some reason bubble gum made me think of me of Hayley. I had never seen bubble gum truffles anywhere and was a little proud of myself for my original idea 😉
Cut to this morning when I read her post for today and what do I see but Bubblegum Fudge!! I guess there’s a reason bubblegum made me think of her, what are the chances?
Anyway, these sweet little truffles will make you feel like a kid again. They taste just like bubblegum – but you get to eat them 😉 Dip them in chocolate and sprinkles and you have a perfect little party treat. Little ones are destined to love these!
- 4 1/2 cups animal crackers
- 1 batch of cream cheese frosting (or 1 can)
- 1/8 tsp bubble gum oil
- 24 oz white chocolate almond bark
- pink food coloring
- nonpareils

How many truffles does this roughly make? I’m thinking of bagging them up for christmas presents and not sure how much ingredients I will need? Thank you!:)
Stephanie says
About 50 or so truffles. Hope you all enjoy them 🙂

Jeff Meulemans says
Where is an easy place to find bubble gum oil? I'm hoping to find it in the local grocery store spice asile but I have my doubts.

Hee–this is definitely right up Hayley’s alley! How awesome are these?!?!
Hayley says
OH MY GAWD. Good riddance, I am drooling like an animal, these look SO. OUTRAGEOUSLY. GOOD. Those animal cookie truffles were yummy, but adding BUBBLEGUM to them?! Pure genius that I am completely in awe of. You’re like, the coolest girl EVER and I’m so glad we’re new bloggy BFF’s. What a delicious and awesome tribute!! <3
